A new store called B.J.'s Wholesale opened in Westboro, Ma on Rt 9 near Duddie Ford. They have BASF and MEMOREX 3.5" DS/DD floppies at 12.49/box of ten (~$1.25 ea.) Lots of boxes. You must be a member to get in, but being a DEC employee makes it simple (just fill out a 1 page form, show them your DEC badge and your in.) This place has mucho stuff at (for the most part) great prices. It's a warehouse type store so most stuff comes in industrial sizes (floppies are single boxes). John

I can second the negative vote for BASF. I bought 30 of their 3.5"
DS disks when I first got my Amiga. Maybe 2/3 of them would format
correctly. I really thought my drives were bad but when I got some
bulk Sony DS disks they worked flawlessly. Never again will I buy
a BASF magnetic media product after this.
